"Now, at the first sign of stagnation, the university kicked one of its own under the bus."
So how long does something need to be stagnant before it starts to smell? The offense has been stagnant for four years and the oft quoted 10 win season is directly attributable to having probably the best defense in the country that year.
Furthermore I don't think many folks would mind being kicked under a 4 million dollar bus.
Lastly if Shula was doing such a bang up job at Alabama as you imply there should be lot's of big name programs clamoring for his head coaching services next year. I don't think I would hold my breath to see if that happens however.
